NO TIME TO WAIT

Cowboys coach Bill Parcells had high hopes for defensive tackle Daleroy Stewart during training camp. He said Stewart had the potential to be a force in the middle. Well, it seems Parcells got tired of waiting on Stewart to live up to his expectations, releasing the third-year veteran Tuesday. The Cowboys needed the roster spot to make room for the return of defensive tackle Leo Carson, who was suspended for the season opener for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy. Stewart's release leaves only two members of the 2001 draft class on the roster -- safety Tony Dixon and center Matt Lehr. The other missing members of the class are Quincy Carter, Willie Blade, Markus Steele, Colston Weatherington, John Nix and Char-ron Dorsey.

LOCAL ATTRACTION

Former Polytechnic standout offensive lineman Thomas Herrion is back with the Cowboys. Herrion, released Sept. 5, has been signed back to the practice squad. Cornerback Lenny Williams was released to make room for Herrion. The move with Herrion was partly prompted by the knee injuries to guard Andre Gurode and guard/center Tyson Walter. A final word on their status for Sunday's game might be revealed today.

SENDING A MESSAGE

Two Pro Football Hall of Famers, coach Mike Ditka and former Cowboys great Tony Dorsett, will be co-national spokesmen for "Tackling Men's Health," an NFL men's health education program. The program encourages men to visit their doctors regularly and be proactive in managing their health.
